GNU ld manual says that multi-letter long option can be prefixed with
either -- or -. Therefore, we should accept not only --subsystem but
also -subsystem, for example.

There is one exception. If an option starts with "o", it should only be
prefixed with -- to avoid ambiguity with -o<filename> option.

This adds support for passing LTO flags to the MINGW driver
in GNU LD style i.e. -mllvm flag -> /mllvm:flag

This patch also rename OPT_outlib OPT_out_implib for consistency.

If the sysroot parameter is passed to the clang frontend, clang
already uses it to find libraries and adds -L options for it, but
also passes it on to the linker. Therefore we can get pretty far
by just ignoring it altogether.

Pass the -verbose option through to the COFF linker, and show the
arguments passed to it. If the -### option is specified, just show
the produced argument list and exit, just like in clang.

Replace the first argument with "lld-link" in order to produce a
correct command line.

When building COFF programs many targets such as mingw prefer
to have a gnu ld frontend. Rather then having a fully fledged
standalone driver we wrap a shim around the LINK driver.
